exhaust clearence

i want run 3in dual exhaust that will come out right before the back tire. i also want sub frame connectors. im worried that if i have to run exhaust under the connectors i will have no ground clearance. can anyone help me out with a different way to route the exhaust.

Re: exhaust clearence

look at the true dual exhaust thread in the sticky at the top of the page. true dual 3" is very large and not worth the effort unless you need it at your power level. your ground clearance will suffer.

i might be getting a 502 thats why i want to do 3in. im not sure if going smaller with that engine would be a good thing or not.

Well sizing the exhaust for your power level is your call. True dual 3" on a thirdgen is tricky to do and maintain ground clearance. Check out the true dual sticky thread at the top of the exhaust board and if you still have questions we'll go from there.

i checked it out and that answered all the questions i had. i missed out on the 502 anyway so 3 in wont be necessary
